Fodor's Review

This square is graced with a Venetian fountain and an elegant Turkish stone kiosk. Odos 1866, which runs north from the square, houses Heraklion's lively open-air market, where fruit and vegetable stalls and souvenir stands alternate with butchers' displays of whole lambs and pigs' feet.
